An alkylamine is a chemical compound consists of an alkyl group that is attached to a nitrogen atom from an amine. Alkylamines come up when in ammonia one out of three hydrogen atoms is substituted by an alkyl. Depending on the numbers of alkyl groups such Alkylamines are named as primary alkylamines (for one group), […]

Organic photovoltaic cells are next generation solar cells. These cells support power generation at a lesser cost than that from other technologies. Organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells provide a low-energy-production photovoltaic solution. This technology can be used to produce colored and transparent photovoltaic cells due to availability of various absorbers. Rising awareness regarding global warming and […]

Dicalcium phosphate is also known as calcium monohydrogen phosphate or dibasic calcium phosphate with the chemical formula CaHPO4. It is produced by neutralization of phosphoric acid and calcium hydroxide at 60°C. There are three forms of dicalcium phosphate i.e., dihydrate or mineral brushite, hemihydrate, and anhydrous or mineral monetite. It is usually used as dietary […]

3D optical surface profilers are a type of profilometer that uses a technology called non-contact technology. These 3D optical surface profilers are usually constructed using advanced optical microscopes, offering two advantages including excellent imaging and no contact with the surface being measured. They work with the use of a variety of light sources, generally using […]

An ongoing trend observed in the market is increasing use of fumaric acid as a food acidulant, coagulant, and others in food & beverages sector to add sharp taste, flavor, and preserve the end-product. Fumaric acid is also known as allomaleic acid or trans-butenedioic acid, and is produced by thermal or catalytic isomerization of maleic […]

When the reports emerged that methane was detected on Mars, there was a big stir amongst the scientists. But there was some issue with the Curiosity rover’s sensors and something may be misinterpreted. But recently, another independent source also detected the possibility of methane on the Red Planet. The presence of this life indicating gas […]

NASA’s InSights lander is roaming on Mars and is busy in digging the Martian surface. The Rover is digging the surface to put the temperature sensor in and calculate the temperature inside the Martian surface. The digging has been halted due to technical issues, but the lander is collecting a lot of information about the […]

NASA’s Space Launch System is not yet complete, and the Space Agency is considering to use the private rockets for the launch. But the National Space Council of America is not much happy with the decision of NASA in this case. The National Space Council will ask NASA to escalate the mission faster and send […]

Ancient bird from 110 million years ago got buried in the soil, and now we’ve found the fossil of the same. Archaeologists and experts have found the fossiled body of the 110 million-year-old bird, with a whole egg inside. The fossil is so well preserved that the egg inside her body is very much in […]

NASA is not so sure about using its Space Launch System to launch the Orion Crew capsule for exploration mission around the moon. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration agency is thinking to use the commercial rocket to launch the Orion Crew capsule on its three-weeks mission around the moon. The space launch system is […]

Last Year, the Soyuz mission was called off after a disastrous failure to the rocket that was supposed to take off with the astronauts. The surviving astronauts from that failure are not back on board of the new Soyuz capsule and are on their way to the International Space Station. The American Astronaut Nick Hague […]

Scientists are continuously monitoring the moon using the data from Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter which is orbiting around the moon. After analyzing the data from the same, scientists have spotted the water molecules moving around on the lunar surface. The water molecules were found moving on the day side of the moon, where the sunlight is […]

A first Israeli space mission is ready to launch this week and make its attempt to land on the lunar surface. The private consortium in Israel partnered with the national space agency and is ready to launch their first lunar mission, that is supposed to land on the moon. Today, the SpaceIL and Israel Aerospace […]

Hubble Space Telescope is always on the search of something new happening in the space. Recently, Scientists discovered the galaxy that was hiding in the plain sight and was confused with the star cluster. Now, the Hubble is looking at the planet Uranus and capturing incredible images of the same. Currently, the Uranus is going […]

Antarctica now melting all over rapidly, including safe parts. Antarctic glaciers are melting at an accelerating pace than in the 1980s. All thanks to an influx of warm ocean water. It’s a shocking finding; researchers say it could be poised to raise sea levels more quickly than ever. As of now, the Antarctic has lost […]

During the start of 2018, Elon Musk had predicted that SpaceX would manage to pull off 30 launches. The target seemed far-fetched. Among all other reasons, some of those flights were planned for the Falcon Heavy, which during that time was yet to fly. Obviously, the company did not hit that figure. Still, the 21 […]

The US Food and Drug Administration is sending out warnings to parents and caregivers related to the use of teething necklaces or bracelets after an 18-month-old child died. The agency even discourages the use of teething products to get rid of the pain in kids or even to offer sensory stimulation to kids suffering from […]

It is not so common for interstellar planets and stars to evaporate and vanish into the infinity. Among a big number of 2869 exoplanets that have been discovered so far, only a few have this property. And, they are oft called Hot Neptunes. Now, in a surprising update, astronomers have found an exoplanet that is […]

NASA may have thought about going back to the Moon before actually colonizing the Red Planet but China is trying to travel a bit further. According to the latest sources, China is now preparing the first-of-its-category surface mission that would be exploring the far side of Earth’s natural satellite. Unlike the previous explorers that NASA […]

If there is one thing which everyone loves but cannot do that then it is becoming an astronaut, but according to the latest report NASA is thinking of selling trips to space. They are trying to work on this project as fast as they can. There are some space tourists who every year takes the […]
